- James Peppe For President 2020
— James Peppe – his closest friends just call him Pep – is a regular American, NOT a professional politician or wealthy celebrity. He is a small business owner, licensed financial investment adviser and father to four wonderful children. The election of Donald Trump in 2016 awoke Peppe’s passion for service with a flood of mixed emotions. On the one hand, he was excited to witness the upending of the political establishment that for so long had promised so much to so many and delivered so little. On the other hand, he was stunned and disappointed to see America invest its hopes in a self-promoting individual of such questionable character as Trump.39 min - Episode 17: Drain the Swamp or Just Move the Wetlands
Welcome to The Schmidt Show
Today we talk about whether or not a blind squirrel has found a nut or if the blind squirrel is just a nut. Is it possible to drain the swamp or do we simply run the risk of draining it into a different swamp. We also took a phone call that revisited last weeks discussion. All in all a great time was had this week on The Schmidt Show Podcast. If you are looking for a passionate and engaging look at politics with a side order of not taking ourselves to seriously you are gonna love The Schmidt Show.

- How raising congressional staff pay could help drain the swamp.
— Have you ever wondered why it seems like Congress is really run by staffers fresh out of undergraduate political science programs and lobbyists, while it barely keeps pace in overseeing the executive bureaucracy?- We No Longer Have Three Branches of Government
— Under the speakership of Newt Gingrich, in an attempt to demonstrate its new cost-cutting zeal, the Congress began to unilaterally disarm itself. Staffing (and thus expertise) was reduced. Foreign travel was scaled back, leaving members of Congress dependent on whatever information the executive branch wished to share with them about important international issues, or what they could discern from reading newspapers- Good on ya Nick!

— You hear a lot of people in political conversations these days talking about the need to “tone down the rhetoric,” although it is not always clear what they mean.- The Ugly Election That Birthed Modern American Politics
— A presidential race was not a popularity contest, as it soon would become; a candidate succeeded by appealing to other professional politicians as much as to ordinary citizens. And the appeal itself remained oblique to the point of coyness. A presidential candidate of 1824 could no more afford to be seen openly campaigning than a candidate for the papacy can today.- Bolsonaro wins Brazil presidential race
— "We cannot continue flirting with communism ... We are going to change the destiny of Brazil," Bolsonaro said in an acceptance address in which he vowed to carry out his campaign promises to stamp out corruption after years of leftist rule.1 hr 20 min - Episode 10: Why do borders matter?
